Damn this sucks. This card was horrible and got even worse now.
Yup. I was really looking forward to that fight and not even from a betting perspective.

not sure about this line movement on lemos, value now on inoue -125 imo.
how do people see Villanueva/ Wright goin down? Seems like it could look a lot like Hernandez/ Wright
maybe by watching their fights and taking all those things into account? I mean you don't have to respond if you just wanna throw hot takes on why we shouldn't bet on a fight, just scroll on man..I'd rather hear from someone that feels like they have an actual read on the fightMy feeling is that anyone betting on the fight is a true degenerate.
Predicting fights is hard enough under normal circumstances, where both guys are the same weight class, both have full camps, aren't coming off recent and brutal knockout losses, etc.
How the hell do you guess at a 200 vs. 230 pound fighter where the 200 pound fighter is competing on about 2 days' notice and the 230 pound fighter received a brutal beating and knockout only 3 months ago?
villanueva is pretty bad but he's tough and comes forward (which threw wright off in the contender series fight as you mentioned). think wright's ptv is a r1 ko. not enough tape on wright past r1. could easily gas with short notice. i think wright is the rightful small fav though although he looked horrendous in that contender series fight. and he's only had one fight since then (another R1 win against a can) so who knows how much he's improved. with that said, i personally will probably play him moreso as a fade of ike but look to hedge if it goes past r1 or if his gas tank goes AWOL rapidlyhow do people see Villanueva/ Wright goin down?

Tbf, on a betting forum, where making money is the objective, it is perfectly reasonable advocating not betting a fight. All fights don't have value.maybe by watching their fights and taking all those things into account?

lol I knew there'd be at least one of these responses..I understand that, but we could play that game for every single fight everTbf, on a betting forum, where making money is the objective, it is perfectly reasonable advocating not betting a fight. All fights don't have value.

St. Preux will undoubtedly have to eat some shots. If he shells up the way he did a couple times agaisnt Olek I imagine Alonzo would likely finish him. But both Olek and Rothwell were able to stalk OSP up against the fence and, while maintaining distance, continuously connect on him. I don't see Alonzo being able to do that, after a two punch combo he collapses into his opponents and rather than getting OSP to shell up they will find themselves clinching.Meanwhile, St. Preux's defense and reaction time is a mess nowadays, and he is increasingly easy to hurt. He will likely eat a number of hard rights from Menifield, and unlike those from the smaller Olek, they may be enough to finish him. Hoping that he fades those connects, gets the takedowns against Menifield and taps him there, and/or fades those connects and has much better cardio are both not quite probable enough at a mere +102.
He certainly is, but he also has 4" less reach, and I would imagine that, though Menifield packs a punch, being 60 lbs heavier, Rothwell hits harder. But for me the main difference is that Rothwell is both happy to clinch and able to maintain distance when he wants to. Menifield shouldn't clinch with OSP, but I don't think he can help it.After seeing bader look slow and old at 37 after moving back down to light heavyweight, I can't help but feel like OSP at 37 doing the same thing might look slow and old as well. Menifield is a lot faster than Rothwell!
Dont think Prachnio hits as hard as he is wild. Sure he can land a haymaker but Mike fights lot more technically. And he got iced by a real crisp boxerPrachino Round 1 is +850. Almost all of his wins are in the first. He's got accumulation stoppages, head kicks, knees, and we've seen him ice a guy with one punch before. Doesn't seem particularly outlandish an outcome considering "Slow" was just knocked out in a minute and Prach is legitimately very hard hitting...
